The Romans
Kamm
The Romans: An Introduction, 3rd edition is a concise, readable, and comprehensive survey of the civilization of ancient Rome. Covering more than 1,200 years of political, military and cultural history, it explores the religion, society, and daily life of the Romans, through a study of their literature, art, architecture and technology.
This new edition contains extensive updated and revised material designed to evoke the themes and debates which resonate in both the ancient and modern worlds: class struggles, imperialism, constitutional power (checks & balances), the role of the family, slavery, urbanisation, and religious tolerance.
New features include:
- expanded historical coverage of Republican history and the Legacy of Rome.
- an expanded introduction to the ancient source materials, as well as a more focused and analytical approach to the evidence, which are designed to engage the reader further in his/her interaction and interpretation of the material.
- new maps and a greater variety of illustrations have been added, as well as updated reading lists. A further appendix on Roman nomenclature and brief descriptions of Roman authors has also been provided.
- the book?s successful website has been updated with additional resources and images, including on-site videos from ancient sites and case studies which provide closer "tutorial" style treatment of specific topics and types of evidence.
Those with an interest in classical language, ancient history, Roman art, political and economic systems, or the concept of civilization as a whole, will gain a greater understanding of both the Romans and the model of a civilization that has shaped so many cultures.
310 pages, 30 black & white halftones, 20 black & white line drawings
